I was supposed to attend the Gala Premier of Transformers - Revenge of The Fallen by Omy last Monday.

But instead, it was the first day when I was supposed to attend my

Medic Course

which require me to stay in the camp (except every weekends).

As a result, I had to forgo my chance of getting a pair of free tickets and the goodies bag, and fork out my own money for the tickets.

Not only that, I had to spent my time lining up at a queue

smiliar like this

only to be told by the ticketing auntie

"Sorry, ah boy! No more tickets!"

F-My Life, seriously!

-----

So anyway, instead of the Saturday midnight slot, I bought the Sunday morning tickets to watch the movie

"Transformer: Revenge of the Fallen"

with DAWNald duck.

-----

First and foremost, no spoilers or review for the movie, in this post.

Spoilers and review are similar to watching a horror movie.


It is like, someone had told you where and when the ghost will appear, and the "BOO" effect is gone.

Similarly, if spoilers and reviews are exposed, the next thing you know, you will never find

• the death of Sam so disheartening
• the sacrifice of Optimus Prime to be so noble
• the combination of Optimus Prime and Jetfire to be so awesome

(Opps, did I just reveal something?)

But of course, no matter how much spoilers or reviews are revealed, you will still find Megan Fox is always so

HOT

ATTRACTIVE

When it comes to movies, like "Transformers", what could be more important than Megan Fox, I mean the action?

-----

When it comes to action, the robots are always the center of attraction.

Other than the usual robots featured in "Transformers" (2007), including

Our all-time favourite "Bubblebee"

-----

The Leader "Optimus Prime"

-----

The Medic "Ratchet"

-----

The Never Say Die "Ironhide"

-----

The Fast and the Furious "Starscream"

-----

The Bad Ass "Megatron"

-----

There are many, and I mean MANY new robots. To name some of them

The Only Female Robot "Arcee"

-----

The Twins "MudFlap" and "Skids"

-----

The Big Sand Sucker "Devastator"

-----

The Mastermind "The Fallen"

And if you think that girls are a complete idiot when it comes to differentiating Autobots from Decepticons, you are so going to be disappointed.

At one point of the movie, I had to consult DAWNald Duck if "Devastator" was a Autobot or Decepticon.

-----

What really makes me "WOW", wasn't the robots.

Instead it was the humans who make me go "WOW".

Well, when I mean humans, I don't really mean

Megan Fox

(Although she does make me go "WOW" in another way.)

but it was the

U.S Military

Imagine, you are part of the Army, holding those sophisticated high-tech guns, surrounded by

Tanks

-----

Fighter Aircrafts

-----

Warships

fighting off Big-Ass robots. And when I say big...

It is really BIG!

I was telling DAWNald duck that, if Singapore Army was so full of action, Singapore wouldn't need to implement National Service.

That's because the guys will rush to sign on with the Army immediately.

-----

Storyline doesn't matter much in movies like "Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen".

What do matter are the

Robots

-----

The Actions

-----

The Explosion

-----

The Cars

-----

The Music

-----

And of course.... The Girls



-----

Nevertheless, "Transformer: Revenge of the Fallen" definitely scores very well in all those aspects.

Do catch it!

~End~

P.S: The spoilers which I had revealed earlier, are not what you thought it will be.

"National Service"

A word which is not unfamiliar to any Singaporeans, especially to the guys.

The guys will always grumble about the

• "sai kang" (shit work)
• fucked up superiors
• waste of time

and most importantly,

"Tekan" (see meaning here) has always been a part of NS, ever since our fathers' time.

Think of it like a "buy-one-get-one-free" welcome gift for guys going NS.

We had often heard how new recruits in our fathers' day were being "tekan" during their army days in Tekong Island.

-----

For example, new recruits were being asked to mow the big grass patch. And their only tool given to them were only scissors...



-----

Another example was, new recruits were also asked to scrub the floor of their toilets thorough clean, with no dirt or stain on them, with brushes.

And guess what, their brush isn't

And if you are thinking about mini-brush, like how they are given mini-scissor, then you are going to be disappointed.

Instead, they were given another type of brush which is the

-----

That was the days when our fathers were still some "chao" recruit. Luckily for us, such insane "tekan" were long abolished.

However, there is still one, and perhaps the most well-known "tekan" which till now in our time, has not being abolished.

In my language, this "tekan" is better known as

If you think "touch the tree" is as easy as to just simply, use your hand to touch the tree and smile like her


-----

"Touch the tree", is to touch the tree with your hand.

However, instead of simply touching the tree and smile, you are required to

• run from one spot to the tree
• touch the tree
• run back to the (original) spot

In addition, you may need to run up a slope or a great distance to reach the tree.

Even worse, this procedure is to be repeated not just one or two times, it's a good old 30 (and above) times

By then, instead of smiling, you will be crawling like how...

-----

The government has always encouraged us to be more creative. Even our army has also become more creative in their "tekan"-ing.

As such, "touch the tree" has also become more and more "creative" these days.

I had this friend who, when he was a recruit, had encountered this particular creative "touch the tree".

-----

His platoon was being punished by his platoon sergeant.

And the platoon was being brought to the parade square, where it was being surrounded by rows of trees.

Pointing to a tree nearby, the Sergeant said

Expecting the Sergeant to order them to run towards that particular tree, the platoon was relieved and answered

However, what the Sergeant was going to order them, was something the platoon never expected or imagined.

Continuing his speech, the Sergeant said

-----

Thus, in order to handle this kind of meaningless "tekan", recruits had also come up with creative counter measures.

There was this particular recruit who was being punished by his Sergeant, by asking him to "touch the tree".

When the recruit came running back, the Sergeant asked him

The recruit was taken aback by what the Sergeant asked, and replied honestly

"Then run back to the tree and return back to me with what the tree said to you", the Sergeant replied.

This continued for several times until the recruit can't take it anymore.

-----

"National Service"

It moulds the boys to men.

It teaches you the importance of protecting our country.

It also teaches you to protect the nature, to touch the nature

If not, why would recruits be asked to

It's out, and I can finally spill the bean!


To be honest, I had knew about this, since last Wednesday and had been keeping it to myself since then.

Nevertheless, to be shortlisted was a big surprise for me, for I had since deleted most of the old blog entries, and had seldom update the blog.

It really makes me wonder how are the blogs are being selected, when I saw this...

"World's Most Handsome Guy"?

-----

However my doubts were cleared when I saw...

"Krisandro"

"Stickgirl"

two of the blogger whom I envy and respect.

-----

With these two blogger competing under the same category with "PengPengSays", it will seem to be a difficult journey to win this Omy’s Singapore Blog Awards 2009.

Although, I do not really see myself winning this award, I am already contented to be shortlisted.

To be shortlisted means you are being recognized, thus each nominee is already a winner.

-----

However, chancing upon the other shortlisted blogs, I had noticed most of the blogs are rallying for their own blogs.

As such, as a typical Singaporean, I should also do the same thing.

And do remember...

Voters stand to win a total of 5 Creative Vado (worth S$169) and 5 ST701 Portable External Hard Disk (250GB)

So, voting also DO earn you some reward!

-----

However, most of the feedback I got was...

"How do I vote?"

Fret not!

For the sake of you winning the Creative Vado/Portable External Hard Disk, I will teach you how to vote!

-----

How to vote?

1. First of all, you will have to register (click the link) for an Omy.sg account to vote, which is FREE.

-----

2. Proceed to OMY webbie (click here)

-----

3. Click on ...

-----

4. Click “Vote” on ...


which apparently is the logo for "PengPengSays"!

-----

Do remember that, this isn't your Superstar competition or your Star Award.

As such, each account can only vote "ONCE PER DAY"! Thus, do vote everyday!

So...

Have you vote ler mah?

Remember, voting ends on 31st July 2009, 2359H.

-----

~End~

P.S: If you die die don't want to vote for me, it is okay.

Instead, you can visit and vote for the other blogs, especially "Krisandro" and "Stickgirl".
